Family Fringe Benefits

OK, I've got an awesome family and I married into another one. . . we've got some big time fringe benefits!

Here are just a couple of my favorites!!

Matt's sister Tiff is a photographer. Not just a photographer, but an awesome, amazing photographer! Pretty much any great pictures you see of me or my kids was taken by her. . . see our Christmas card above! Not only does she take great pictures but she's a pro at using photoshop so she can take the bags out from under my eyes, wax my eyebrows (like I really have any!) and whiten my teeth all from her little computer. Bless you photoshop! She can also make children smile that weren't before. In the original above photo Molly wasn't smiling, so she just took a picture that she was smiling in and moved her face!! P.S. you can check out her website at http://www.photographybytiffanie.com. Hey, for as many pictures she does for us, I can do a little publicity. . .

Another of Matt's sisters, Amber, has worked for a store as a cake decorator for almost 10 years, Check out these awesome cakes she has made for my kids for birthdays

Madison's princess castle cake. . .

As opposed to the cake I made. . .

Just kidding that's one she got to make at preschool in the ez bake oven!

And Molly's favorite doggy cake. . .I'm hoping she can make some awesome ones in about a month. January 31st is Madisons birthday, and February 1st is Mollys!!

Christy, he is by far my favorite and best little singer in there. He is so cute. When it was time for me to go he did a big wave and said "SEEEEEE Ya Later!!" And I have a feeling that we'll be singing the snowman song well into July!!
